Native Seed Collecting

Audubon’s NATIVE (Native Agriculture To InVigorate Ecosystems)Project is training farmers to grow native plants as an environmentally friendly, climate change-resistant specialty crop that provides both income and on-farm wildlife habitat. Restoration of prairie ecosystems, once home to the Greater Prairie-Chicken, will help other declining grassland birds such as the Northern Bobwhite,Grasshopper Sparrow, and Dickcissel.<br /><br />Help Audubon Arkansas staff and partners collect seed to support the NATIVE Project. Several volunteer days have been scheduled for seed collection this fall. Additional days may be scheduled in the coming weeks.<br /><br />Volunteers must sign up using our online form. Forms are linked below for each event.<br /><br />Questions? Email audubonarkansas@audubon.org or call 501-244-2229.<br />?<br />Record Time as Seed Collection, Sponsor Audubon.
